Hi all, first post on here. I want to refresh the PC i built in 2014. Used to be a beast. Its a 980ti, intel i7 4790k, 16 gigs of gddr3 ram(motherboard doesn't support 4 or 5 sadly) and a MSI z97 gaming 5 motherboard. I want to refresh the PC on the cheap, I still play games just alot less than I used to. I know next to nothing about modern PC parts, my knowledge quite literally is stuck in 2014. My objective for this refresh is stay under 500 dollars, and be able to run most modern games at ultra/high at 60fps at 1080p.
Upon some really bare bones research, I could be horribly wrong, but I was thinking of picking up the msi gaming 4060 and an intel i3 12100f. Would this setup be an upgrade over my current set up? would it be able to play modern games at ultra/high at 1080p 60fps? Will the graphics card and CPU even work with my motherboard? Thanks in advance.
